Micro Automated Assembly

IN-HOUSE, WORLD CLASS MICRO AUTOMATED ASSEMBLY

In today’s high precision markets, it’s important to use automated assembly solutions for successful micro-manufacturing projects. Micro automated assembly reduces damage, bioburden, handling, labor, scrap, and the need to regain positional datum structure.

At the micro level, manual assembly is cost-prohibitive and requires a level of dexterity that makes it impossible to avoid significant, unacceptable errors for micron tolerances. This is critical, especially when the key objective with micro automated assembly is to reduce the number of times a part is handled.

With over 15 years of experience in micro automation and assembly, Isometric Micro Molding has developed discrete, ultra-precision capabilities in the automated assembly of micro medical devices, as well as drug delivery devices. Isometric’s in-house, micro automated assembly provides single micron positional accuracy combined with our in-depth understanding of micro assembly methodology.
